Lyrics for Song: Haven't You Heard?
Lyrics for Album: Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk [1997]
your wish is my command!
have you heard this talk about eye contact?
gonna be the downfall of this town.
first the photographs take you to the right hand.
leads you to the authority mold.
paranoia will write this world prayer
make sure that you fill in the right holes
but when you take his offer, you're done for,
done for, done for, oh-oo-oh-oh!
phantoms in pockets, we're in panic,
making order in total disgust
oh, they read a list of all who cannot stay
take you down, on the ground.
paranoia will write this world prayer
make sure that you fill in the right holes
but when you take his offer, you're done for,
done for, done for, Oh-oo-oh-oh!
make sure you learn to beware your neighbor,
bolt the doors and hire your guards.
suck your life with their virus called language,
someone told you this all would go down.
and the last thing you see is the luster,
hold the razor, goodbye to your friends.
would your underground please call the mayor,
call the neighbor, call your friends.
paranoia will write this world prayer
make sure that you fit in the right holes
but when you take his offer, you're done for,
done for, done for, Oh-oo-oh-oh!
when he first saw you, you didn't need no protection
eyes trained on your mouth, you'll learn to take him.
mmmm. it's a brand new power.
my friend had her questions right
beware your neighbor
haven't you heard, haven't you heard
that we're done for. done for. Oh.
learn to beware your neighbor
and the right mode.
haven't you heard?
haven't you heard,
that we're done for, done for?
when i count down from ten
you'll feel the lead in your lids
you've no need to resist,
and wake up refreshed Hah!
